Billionaire refused to pay $ 90,000 of tax because hundreds of Canadian geese have pooped on his holiday property in New York City and it is covered with their excrement, the Associated Press reported.
The geese gather every summer on the meadow in front of their home and the family can not use their property. At this stage, the billionaire's personal battle with the geese has gone unsuccessful.
He claims to have tried to stretch fishing lines, sprayed with a stink repellent, and even put a wolf scarecrow, but nothing helped him to take back his holiday property on the shore of a lake. Failure to pay the tax is his next desperate move.
Tom Golisano said he would give the money to schools in the area. Municipal authorities, however, believe that Canadian geese are not their problem because they are in private property.
